FCA-regulated multi-asset prime-broker Sova Capital has teamed up with financial technology provider IRESS, ushering in a new alignment that will help streamline its order management system.

The joint accord will add another third-party OMS to Sova Capital’s post-trade processing and middle office function, which helps the company manage its clients’ pre-trade risk, positions, portfolios, margin, order routing, and workflow. Sova Capital already works with a variety of EMS providers, allowing clients to choose the solution that matches their own needs.

Together with IRESS, the integrated OMS will form a key component of Sova’s prime derivatives trading platforms. In particular, this technology will feed all trading data into Sova Capital’s back-office system Calypso, and its proprietary back-office reporting product – Sova smart.
